SPLIT ROLL ADVOCATES LOSE IT OVER GOVERNOR’S COMMENTS

California Calls/Make It Fair Coalition, a recently formed astro-turf group funded by public employee unions and other left-wing political advocacy groups, put together specifically to push changing Proposition 13 and creating a split roll, put out a statement proclaiming “Governor Brown Wrong on Split Roll.” In addition to criticizing the Governor for his long-held position the group implies that the Governor is being racially-insensitive in his description of the measure, and they cite their failed split roll bill, SCA 5, which never even garnered enough votes to get it out of on House of the Legislature.
